Guest guest Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Dear Tina, No, I do not rinse with clean water, because after cleaning it with Kacchi Lassi and reciting gemstone, one wears it. After wearing, just wash your hands with simple water. So no stickiness. If you can not get Ganga Jal, you can use simple tap water, which u use for drinking. Yes, I use this method when gem is worn for the first time and I do not take off the gem / ring. So, it is not clear to me, what you meant by first time. The gemstone (in a ring) should be worn and should not be taken off. Well, I cannot comment of blessing the gem in temple. Never did and not read about it. I hope senior members and gurus will shed light on this. warm regards, Neeraj Gupta --- tli10022 <tli wrote: > Dear Neeraj, > > Thanks for your reply.
